    Everyone is bound to have one type of junk food that gets on their soft spot. Regardless of how healthy our eating habits are. I absolutely am crazy about potato chips, as much as I want to control it I have to eat them at least once or twice a week.

    I like a whole bunch of junk foods especially sweets. Little Debbie's snack cakes, Oreos, Klondike bars, candy bars, etc. I could eat sweets all day if it didn't mean gaining lots of weight and being unhealthy.

    The food I really like is meat pie. Anyday, anytime I love them even with my normal food eating.

    I love eating junk food too, but I think the ones that I tend to consume the most are chips and soda.

    I am nuts about an Indian sweet called “Gulab Jamun”. It is quite sweet and I really like its taste. No matter how hard I try, sooner or later, I end up eating it.

    - Lunch meats and deli cheeses. I will snack on these all day long, and not pay attention to how much I am eating overall. I try not to buy it on my own, but when my family is around they will buy several pounds of stuff and I will gorge on it, lol.

    - Leftover mashed potatoes and stuffing. Especially after Thanksgiving, Easter and Christmas dinner. I specifically will make much more than what we need because I know I will be snacking on it the rest of the day.

    - Leftover Chinese food. I try to save it for another meal or two, because they give you so much in one order. But I usually can't resist grabbing a bite or two from it each time I hit the fridge.

    Probably Chester's Puffcorn. It looks so bad for me and it is so bad for me, but the texture is so unnervingly wonderful that I sometimes can't resist! And that cold, artificial cheese flavor is frightening and comforting all at once. Maybe I should go get a bag. I'll be back.

    My favorite junk food is anything chocolate. If it has nuts, I enjoy it even more. My favorites are Hershey's and Snickers. I also love Pringles and Lays cheddar potato chips.

    I generally avoid junk food, though admit to enjoying chips with lunch at times. There is just something about salty foods that are so tempting.

    Chinese food. Yes, the Chinese food we have over here is considered junk food by almost everyone ;) I love eating it at least twice a month. I also love eating candy and pizza, but I rarely do it during the week.

    My favorite junk food are Flammin hot fries by Cheetos. I love anything hot, and have had several other hot chips, but these beat the race for me. I usually will buy the the big $2 bags and try to save half for the next day, but that never really happen. Even though they make my hands orange with the Cheetos crumbs on it, I think this add to the excitement of eating them. It's not a clean job eating these hot fries, but its my favorite junk food, there has to be some other thrill than just the taste while eating them. I hate to eat them around family, because I know they are going to ask for some which I will quickly deny.

    Yummy! I also like eating cheetos, specially the flaming hot ones :) Sadly the ones they sell over here taste so different to the ones made in USA, just like the Pepsi made in the Netherlands (it tastes very weird, trust me!).

    Nutella! Cant seem to live without it. I eat somewhere around 6-7 teaspoons a day. Plus in the morning, I must always get my bread with nutella or else I can't function. I believe I may have an addiction.

    I had no idea Nutella was junk food. I guess it's the amount that you have. Anyway, i'll have to cut back if it's really so.

    Rosa, most foods with huge amounts of sugar (just like Nutella) are considered junk, since their nutritional value is very low, but high in calories and sugar. Most packed things are junk.

    You are perfectly right, Trellum. So I am thinking, if done with moderation it should be fine and more so if it's cocoa.

    Ah moderation... if only I could.... with the weekend comes the desiree to indulge... (for me) on sunday morning I get to experience the guilt and shame :oops::oops::oops::oops::oops: I love junk food! Trying to have that with moderation... most things we eat can potentially kil us anyway... so do your best... don't worry and be happy! We all have a baseline of 37% to develop an invasive cancer no matter what we eat... 44% men. So, yeah, don't worry and be happy! Eat in moderation and exercise, don't sweat the small stuff :) That's my advice to you and to whoever reads this :D:thumbsup:

    My favorite junk foods are Dr Pepper, Pepsi , and Cheetos. I used to enjoy eating lots of junk foods, but now I try to be careful about what I eat, because it can be unhealthy for you.

    Yeah, foods with a lot sugar and chemicals are cancer magnets. When I was younger I just couldn't grasp this, since I was young and thought nothing could harm me, lol... i was soooo wrong!
